As aa chronically anxious human who used to feel the need to plan out everything to the point that it was so overwhelming that I could not move - here's a reminder for us both. You don't have to have it all figured out right now.

Please never be embarrassed or too afraid to talk about your mental health. You’re tired from being strong. There’s nothing wrong with seeking assistance with getting along.

Have no fear and feel no despair, as during even the most difficult, stagnant periods of your life, growth is ALWAYS happening; it’s just that during these times we can’t see, feel or touch it. We’re blind and numb and our old familiar ghosts of self-doubt, worthlessness, feeling unloveable and impossibly wounded, haunt and taunt us about being stuck or lost again.

Yet, stuckness itself is also a form of growth, because it forces us to go down and into ourselves ever more deeply. It forces us to traverse the uncomfortable regions of self-doubt, loss of faith and loss of our outer way for a time.

But we ALWAYS re-emerge eventually. And when we do, we bring with us new insight, new hope and new embers of life, which we can carry back into the outer world. Except now it’s imbued with a richness that was lacking before, as it’s through us finding our way back out again that we’ve gained something essential and new.

So please know this if you’re presently struggling, or for the next time you feel yourself sliding into despair, or you just can’t see the way forward; yet.

Know that one day you too will ride back out into the world carrying new growth and the tiniest shoots of something that was previously inaccessible to you.

Everything that happens to us happens in its own time and way.

Our task is to surrender and ask ourselves: What can I find here that I was blind to before or simply wouldn’t accept in myself?
